Electabuzz is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 80 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It features two attacks: Punch, which costs two Colorless energy to deal 20 damage, and Thunder Shock, requiring one Lightning and two Colorless energy to strike for 40 damage while flipping a coin to potentially Paralyze the opponent's Active Pokémon. The card resists Metal-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type moves with double damage. It belongs to the Sun & Moon series, released in 2017, as part of the Burning Shadows set. Electabuzz is classified as Uncommon rarity and was illustrated by match. The card’s flavor text references Electabuzz’s tendency to gather at electric power plants, causing blackouts by consuming electricity. Its design aligns with the Pokémon’s signature traits and thematic elements from the series.

Half of all sudden blackouts are caused by Electabuzz gathering at electric power plants and gobbling up electricity.
